Is Cintodac A Safe Medicine While Treating GERD?
Question: Is cintodac is safe medicine since I am having it for past one year .My GERD is not getting resolved.your views doc
Brief Answer:
Yes, it is a safe medication!
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.
I am so sorry to hear about this difficulty getting your GERD well controlled. The truth is that it is a good drug. If it not getting better, then I will suggest that your doctors get an endoscopy done to see what the exact problem is. Not all GERD can be treated with medications and some may need surgery especially when drugs fail to control the symptoms. This is why evaluating treatment is always good. My plan would be the following:
1. Get to see a gastroenterologist and get a scope done.
2. Then adjust treatment accordingly.
3. In addition to drugs, avoid chocolates, fatty meals, alcohol tobacco, and leaning forward soon after meals.
I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thanks for using our services and feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
